Cutest Crocheted Coffee Cup Cozy!

Written by chanie on January 26th, 2011

With the freezing weather here in New York, I’ve been loading up on warm drinks lately. I don’t like to use styrofoam cups, since I’ve heard that they’re carcinogenic. Instead, I opt for paper hot cups, but I always need to double up on them so that I don’t burn myself. Then it hit me. Why don’t I just crochet myself a java jacket aka coffee cozy aka cup sleeve aka coffee cuff (I think you get the idea). I started looking up some ideas online, and I fell in love with this moustache idea. I think it’s adorable!! The sleeve was a no-brainer. But I had to play around for quite a while until I crocheted the perfect moustache. I realized that if I crochet two separate leaves and glue them opposite each other, I get a moustache! I’m so excited about how it turned out! Try one for yourself.

Crocheted Coffee Cup Cozy

How-to:

Round 1: Crochet a chain the that fits tightly around the base of the cup (I did 30). Slip stitch into first ch.
Round 2-10: *ch2, sc in each ch around, sl st into beginning ch2. Repeat from * for remaining rounds.
